Again a ridiculous argument. One is literally intended to kill someone, the other is a means of transportation. I'm not a fan of cars either but if you actually want to get people on board with the cause equating anyone who drives with Wernher Von Braun is a bad move.

Rockets don't exist purely to kill people.

In fact, they are a mode of transit! Can you get a man to the moon in a car?

tone policing from someone who will obviously never be an ally

Cool story.

The rockets you were referencing were never a means of transport, only a long distance weapon used by Nazis. And apparently I'm not an ally because I don't think literally everyone who drives is as bad as a Nazi war scientist who made some of the Nazis deadliest weapons? Are literally just a troll to make this sub look bad?

And guns are just dangerous toys you take out to the range sometimes. It's cool.
